【 摘 要 】

The transient behaviour of electric heating and de-icing of the wing is studied by numerical method. The thermal convection coupling method based on the equivalent heat transfer coefficient and the boundary condition iteration is developed for the two designed schemes of the electric heating system. According to the surface temperature, the internal temperature, and the icing condition, the system transient performance is investigated. The purpose of this study is to establish the de-icing transient model of the wing ice protection system, simulate the transient de-icing process and form the method of performance estimation. The results under different working conditions show that the temperature distribution of the skin surface is not uniform, rather presents certain regularity. The rising rate of temperature decreases with the increase of the temperature. The trend is more obvious at lower ambient temperature, when the ambient temperature rises, the surface temperature rises rapidly in a short period. Scheme 2 has certain advantages in heating capability, while the hot knives structure of scheme 1 can narrow and split the icing area.
